Deputies attempted to stop Powell as he left the house around 10:30 p.m.

But Powell sped off, the sheriff's office said.

"At one point, Powell drove back toward pursuing deputies. One deputy discharged his firearm, which did not strike Powell," the sheriff's office said. "Powell then drove back to the property where the incident continued. Powell was eventually taken into custody by deputies."

Powell was booked into the Douglas County Jail on charges of:

Driving Under the Influence of Intoxicants

Attempt to Elude Police Officer – Vehicle

Recklessly Endangering Another Person

Reckless Driving

Attempt to Commit Assault

The sheriff said Powell’s wife, 41-year-old Shakota Ann Powell, was taken into custody on a charge of Interfering With a Police Officer.
